Cead Mile Failte

(One Hundred Thousand Welcomes)

Cead Mile Failte

On a forest pathway

A sweet melody tickles

Brought by a lazy breeze

A tumbling sound of bliss

 

Nectar of the summer’s cloud

Is Mother’s life’s blood

Oscillating scent intoxicating

Liberates a disenchanted chi

 

Simplistic pleasures

Chance of soundless Riches

A traveler, confused, overjoyed

Wanders the sands of time

 

Sundering brilliance

Humanistic freehand inspiration

Fumes of emotions evaporating

A mind pushed to the edge

 

Shed purgatory plight

Experience a soul’s peace

Balance achieved through dedication

Welcome to the hidden world

The spoken word poet in me is freaking out because I do not see any commas or periods - mainly because in the poetry I write, rhythm is a huge part of the poem, but not all poems need punctuation. I'm not sure if it would help further your poem, but it is something to consider and try, even if it isn't part of the style you are trying. Once again, your last line grabs at me, loved it.

I like the imagery in this poem however it did seem a little disjointed and it was hard for me to get through it doesn't seem to a flowing rhythm, as I was reading it it seemed stilted to me. perhaps you could work on that, but thhat is just my opinnion.
